My problem with the UAF Sun Star Twitter:

40+ tweets in one night. One event, the Nanook hockey game. Most of the people I follow, mostly friends with a few celebrities or personalities. The most I've seen tweeted posted in a day was somewhere around 30. That requires myself to click the "more" button on the bottom of the page once to see all the ( Read more... )

IT WASN'T UNTIL THEN THAT SOMETHING CHANGED. The diamonds became chrysanthemums, and the walls grew, yet fell apart. The trees blossomed into colors, seeping out and filling the sidewalk. I followed the road until I came to a fence, and on the other side was a sense of warmth. I jumped the fence easily, possibly not even jumping at all. I continued ( Read more... )

Hmm. I'm going out on a limb here and saying that SUMMER- 2009 is officially over, with the snow fall and all. So, out of all the jobs I applied for this summer, not even one has called me back ( Read more... )

I need to move a little less than 30 gallons of fuel back to Sourdough Fuel. Does anyone have a way to do this that isn't a couple gallons at a time?

-OR- If I bought say 6 five gallon gas containers, would anyone be interested in buying one or some off of me?

Woke up to find an $80 bill from Sourdough fuel today. They told me in March that they would call me before they would do anything that would cost money. Oops. I don't even know why they filled it up. I mean, i still had OVER 90% OF MY TANK LEFT FROM MARCH. They measured it in late June/early July even! WTF. I called them up and asked why they gave ( Read more... )

So, I'm totally scared about this semester. The last few have ended horribly, comparing them to having a 2.5 GPA and graduating within six years. I'm afraid that I'll be doomed to freshmen level courses year round, but those loans, I really can't pay them back, so back to school is where it is ( Read more... )

Had my interview with Personal Plus, and I turned in my appeal for Financial Aid (which they forgot to tell me I had to do until Friday, even though I asked about it deliberately two weeks ago...). I might be moving out of my cabin soon, since the leave ends this month. Running water, a kitchen that has more than a microwave and a mini-fridge, and ( Read more... )

Finally saw the Ear-Nose-Throat specialist from Anchorage today! I got the green light to get my tonsils removed, and the option of a Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP for short). UPPPs is a surgery where they remove your tonsils, uvula, soft palette, adenoids, and pharynx. It's a painful procedure, but I'm totally willing to try, I mean, I haven't ( Read more... )

Food allergy test results came in. I'm allergic to cats, dogs, and pollen...which I told them before I had my blood drawn. I'm not allergic to nuts or fish of any kinds, so that's cool too, but why did they test for things I've known for over a decade? Whatever, Ear-Nose-Throat doctor appointment tomorrow, and as Ephy has gotten good results, ( Read more... )
